Run MATLAB Parallel Server on Microsoft Azure Using Reference Architecture

Use a customizable reference architecture to run MATLAB^® Parallel Server™ on Windows^® virtual machines in Microsoft^® Azure^®.

Use this reference architecture when you want to launch a cluster of MATLAB workers in Microsoft Azure, combine your MATLAB resources with your existing cloud resources, or automate deployment.

For a simpler but less customizable method of launching a MATLAB Parallel Server cluster in Microsoft Azure, see Run MATLAB Parallel Server from Microsoft Azure Marketplace.

Requirements

To use this reference architecture, you need:

A Microsoft Azure account. You are responsible for the costs of all Microsoft Azure services.
Parallel Computing Toolbox™ installed on a client machine. The version must match the MATLAB version of the reference architecture.
A MATLAB Parallel Server license. For more information on how to configure your license for cloud use, see Configure MATLAB Parallel Server Licensing for Cloud Platforms.
You can use either:
- A MATLAB Parallel Server license configured to use online licensing. To view and modify the license manager type, see Configure MATLAB Parallel Server Licensing for Cloud Platforms.
- A network license manager for MATLAB hosting sufficient MATLAB Parallel Server licenses for your cluster. You can use an existing license manager or deploy a network license manager that is also running on Azure. To view instructions for deploying a network license manager reference architecture on Azure, select a MATLAB release from Network License Manager for MATLAB on Microsoft Azure (GitHub).

Run from GitHub

To launch MATLAB in Azure, use the reference architecture templates provided in the following GitHub^® repository:

MATLAB Parallel Server on Microsoft Azure (GitHub)

You can run the template directly from the link in the GitHub repository. Choose your MATLAB release, and then click the Deploy to Azure icon.
